The Victorinox swiss army knife is simply the best pocket tool! (Edit: no one tool is everyone's best)

The more I look at alternatives, the more I realize, nothing can give you this much functionality in this small a package, while being so high quality and reasonably priced. Popular (machine-assembled) versions regularly go for $25.

The one caveat is that it falls behind modern knives in terms of safety and ease for opening/closing. I'd love to see a next-gen SAK without nail nicks.

I have one with the nail clipper and small scissors, and it's been such a lifesaver! The clippers are actually better than most of the dedicated clippers I've used. I'm hoping they come up with a bigger version with a few more tools attached, and more interesting materials for a back up pair!
